Description
IBM Cloud Functions is a versatile functions-as-a-service (FaaS) platform built upon Apache OpenWhisk, designed for creating efficient, lightweight code that runs on demand with scalability. This platform provides full access to the Apache OpenWhisk ecosystem, encouraging contributions from developers around the world. With IBM Cloud Functions, developers can create applications that respond to events through sequences of actions. Additionally, it seamlessly integrates cognitive analysis into application workflows, enhancing the capabilities of the applications being developed. As you advance in your use of OpenWhisk components or tackle larger workloads, only then does the cost increase, making it a cost-effective solution for evolving needs. Overall, IBM Cloud Functions stands out as an essential tool for developers seeking to leverage event-driven programming in their applications.
Description
OpenFaaS® simplifies the deployment of serverless functions and existing applications onto Kubernetes, allowing users to utilize Docker to prevent vendor lock-in. This platform is versatile, enabling operation on any public or private cloud while supporting the development of microservices and functions in a variety of programming languages, including legacy code and binaries. It offers automatic scaling in response to demand or can scale down to zero when not in use. Users have the flexibility to work on their laptops, utilize on-premises hardware, or set up a cloud cluster. With Kubernetes handling the complexities, you can create a scalable and fault-tolerant, event-driven serverless architecture for your software projects. OpenFaaS allows you to start experimenting within just 60 seconds and to write and deploy your initial Python function in approximately 10 to 15 minutes. Following that, the OpenFaaS workshop provides a comprehensive series of self-paced labs that equip you with essential skills and knowledge about functions and their applications. Additionally, the platform fosters an ecosystem that encourages sharing, reusing, and collaborating on functions, while also minimizing boilerplate code through a template store that simplifies coding. This collaborative environment not only enhances productivity but also enriches the overall development experience.
